A customer bought a car and paid $1,080 in sales tax. The sales tax rate is 6%. What was the price of the car before the tax?

Okay. So you have the amount of take, and the tax rate.

using normal approximation, the probability that the total yearly claim exceeds $2.7 million is calculated as follows:

Sea sumatoria de x = SUMX, tenemos que:

$P (SUMX \geq 2700000) = P(\frac{SUMX - 240*10000}{800 *\sqrt{10000} } \geq \frac{2700000 - 240*10000}{800 *\sqrt{10000} })$
